Under the blue sky, a flying shuttle was passing quickly in the air.
The birds and beasts fled everywhere when the flying shuttle flew past. There was one standing at the fore of the shuttle, braving the strong wind.
The person had an extremely handsome face, but that handsome face also revealed a trace of feminine features. However, at this moment, the person had a domineering look, making him like the king of the world.
A few steps behind the person, a maid's lips twitched slightly as if she wanted to say something.
Failing to say anything naturally would not get any response. The maid clapped her hands lightly, and suddenly the strong wind ceased.
"I mean, are you done with making poses? If you are done then come over and review what a core disciple should look like."
"Ey? Ah, haha..."
Very abruptly, the person who seemed to be a wealthy person showed a simple look and hopped to the maid.
All the previous domineering look disappeared without a trace, and at this time, this person only had that naughty feeling.
Well, there was also respect for the maid from the heart.
"It's rare to impersonate Miss. Speaking of which, Miss, why do you want Ling'er to pretend to be a man? And also exchange identities?"
Knocking on Ling'er's head, the maid who was called Miss started to check the image of the person in front of her again.
"Of course it is to... Huh, you bratty girl, why do you have so many questions? Just do as I say."
"I can guess it even if you don't want to tell me!" The girl called Ling'er wrinkled her nose at her Miss and skipped this relatively sensitive topic, "but Miss, why do we have to get involved in Shang Qing Sect's business? The strength of Shang Qing Sect is declining, but our Celestial Tower of the Spiritual Peak is prospering, so why bother with..."
"Humph, do you really think this marriage is just as simple as bringing the two sects closer together?"
After confirming everything was okay, the maid flipped the palm of her hand.
Following the gentle and casual movement, a tea table and two chairs appeared beside them out of thin air.
Signaling to sit down together, the maid continued to explain.
"Shang Qing Sect is not as prosperous as it was ten thousand years ago, but its background is far stronger than many sects at least ten thousand times. Take the Primordial Chaos Sect, which has suddenly risen in recent years, as an example, if those two sects became enemies, the only sect that would be wiped out from this world would be the Primordial Chaos Sect."
"How could it be possible!" Ling'er's face was covered with contempt as if Shang Qing Sect was not comparable to the Primordial Chaos Sect.
"Primordial Chaos Sect has indeed flourished in recent years, and it has sign of becoming the most powerful sect." The maid sipped her tea, although she was praising, it was not hard to tell that there was a trace of disdain. "But Ling'er, you have to understand one thing. Shang Qing Sect is the only sect that has experienced the most tribulations since that great catastrophe. Even though our sect has great strength now, in front of those who have real power, it is nothing more than dust that can be wiped out easily.
Moreover, Shang Qing Sect has always had the nickname of Hamster Sect; they would hide everything from outsiders. Outsiders can’t imagine how many treasures Shang Qing Sect has from ancient times. There are rumors saying that they don’t even know how many treasures are hidden inside their set.
A sect that survived the great catastrophe, and its huge assets, these two points alone are enough for many sects to form a marriage alliance with them."
"Then why is the strength of Shang Qing Sect declining now..."
When mentioned here, the corner of the maid's mouth suddenly twitched.
"Who knows what they are thinking. They obviously have so many trump cards, but they are still losing..."
"Miss, based on what you said, Ling'er suddenly has a feeling." Ling'er suddenly showed a mysterious expression, "maybe they are deliberately showing weakness, but actually, they are planning for something big."
"We can't rule out this possibility," the maid nodded. "A while ago, many spies who got into the Shang Qing Sect were removed in one fell swoop. For many years, they have not made any big moves. Then they had an admission assembly, and then the Grand Tournament... Based on all those things, no one will believe that they are not preparing for something big."
"Oh!" Ling'er poured tea for her Miss, and took out some fruits along the way, and placed them on the table. "That is to say people who are going to the sect are actually trying to establish a friendly relationship. At the same time, they can also explore the truth and intentions of the Shang Qing Sect?"
"Yes.”
Standing up, the maid sighed lightly.
"On this trip, Ling'er, your task is to take the advantage of seeking marriage and rely on those disciples to investigate related matters. Of course, if Ling'er can make that special disciple of Shang Qing Sect fall in love with you, I will definitely reward you ."
"Miss, please have mercy!"
When it came to this matter, Ling'er became a little bit horrified.
"Ling'er is straight! Ling'er still wants to marry a man."
"You are really silly..." Knocking on Ling'er forehead again, the maid said, "You really think we will be able to compete with Thundering Sword Gate and Primordial Chaos Sect? That disciple is not our main target. Besides, there are many peaks in Shang Qing Sect, they have many handsome disciples, you will definitely find someone you like."
"Mhm! Mhm! Understood! As long as it is the disciple of Shang Qing Sect, it doesn't matter who it is, right?"
"Just don't overdo it and expose our plan..."
Suddenly, the maid's expression froze.
She tilted her head to look into the distance, and in her eyes, the reflection of billowing clouds faintly appeared.
"Which demonic sect is so brazen that they actually appear in the territory of our domain in such a blatant manner?" Stirring the elixir field, and using the true vital energy to warp around the shuttle, the maid-looking girl said, "Looking at the route, it seems to be going straight to Shang Qing Sect."
The flying shuttle quickly turned into a phantom shadow, and then, a shocking explosion suddenly echoed in the blue sky.
Demonic cultivators suddenly appeared in the realm of righteous cultivators. This made other people who were heading to Shang Qing Sect also speed up their pace.
Chapter 7 The Visits of All Cultivators Part 5
Since hearing the phrase "immature proposal", Xing Yun knew something bad would happen to him.
As a result, when Xing He opened his mouth, Xing Yun almost jumped up on the spot and kicked Xing He's head, if Xing Ya hadn't stopped him.
"Competition? This is a good way."
Taoist Master Ming An stroked his beard, and then a long golden mace suddenly appeared beside him.
The mace was more than a meter long and seven inches wide, and although it had no sharp edges, its four edges were emitting full of cold light; there were deep deep grooves on the for sides of the mace, and there seemed to be light looming inside.
The golden mace was thin at the top and thick at the bottom, like a sword cone. Where the mace body and the handguard were connected was a dragon's head, and it looked like the mace was spouted from the mouth of the dragon.
The end of the mace's handle was like a dragon's tail with ribbons hanging on it. There was no wind in the room, but it was swinging with the true essence of Ming An.
"It just happened that Shang Qing Sect is holding the Grand Tournament. So we can also compete with each other on the stage to contribute a little bit of effort to such a grand event."
After that, he twisted the golden mace a little. Instantly many golden spikes emerged from the deep grooves.
The golden spikes intertwined, the cold gleam they emitted showed how deadly they were.
"Then, who wants to fight with this old man Langya mace first?"
Langya mace uttered a loud ringing sound in response to the voice of Taoist Master Ming An, as if to translate its master's hidden meaning.
And that was whoever dared to come out to fight this old man, this old man would teach you why red flowers looked like blood when they bloomed.
At the moment, Taoist Master Ming An actually looked like fearless Yun Xia when she was holding her Feather-light Cleaver.
Oh, Feather-light Cleaver was the name of Yun Xia's kitchen knife.
However, the elders of the various sects were not scared. Although Primordial Chaos Sect was faintly showing signs of becoming the number one cultivation sect, if they showed signs that they were scared of Primordial Chaos Sect at this moment, they would not be able to stand in front of Primordial Chaos Sect with their back straight. Moreover, their goals of coming to this place would also be ruined.
"Okay, then let me..."
"Everyone, seniors, it's a misunderstanding, a big misunderstanding!"
Before the people from Thundering Sword Gate challenged Ming An, Xing He quickly rubbed his hands and stopped the elders of various sects from fighting each other in Shang Qing Hall.
"What I mean is to let younger generations fight on the stage."
"The younger generation?" Several of them became a little weird when they heard what Xing He said.
"Presumably you are also aware that we don't like to beat around the bush. So I will not hide it from you. If you seniors compete with each other on the stage, then the disciples of our sect will not be able to learn anything from you. Not to mention learning, they may not be able to see what is going on on the stage. All the seniors here also have high status. So how can you fight each other on the stage? Therefore, it's better to let your disciples compete with each other on the stage, in this way, my junior sister will have a more intuitive impression."
Xing Yun really wanted to curse Xing He.
However, this would indeed benefit many disciples, including him, in the Shang Qing Sect, so he still held back his anger.
Moreover, it was better to act like a pretty flower in a vase to watch people fight than fighting them himself.
So he vaguely cast a look at Xing He with a look of "You are dead" and smiled.
"I'll follow the arrangements of the Senior Brother."
No of the elders from other sects opposed this proposal, so they quickly began to send messages to the disciples who were viewing the scenery of the Shang Qing Sect alone. Not long after, a lot of accompanying disciples gathered outside the Shang Qing Hall.
Those disciples were all God’s favored ones, and they were all the pride of other sects.
In private, they had already been competing with each other. But at this time, when they were gathered together, they didn't get into a fight immediately. It could only be said that they were really well-mannered.
However, the strong smell of gunpowder could be sensed in the main hall.
"Why don't you two go to meet those God’s favored ones? You just need to chat with them to enhance your relationship "
Although Xing He said it like this, obviously, he wanted Xing Yun to cause a little spark so it would ignite the gunpowder.
However, at the moment when Xing Yun and Xing Ya stepped out of the Shang Qing Hall, the thunderous sound rushed into Shang Qing Hall from the mountain gate.
"Domineering Palace came to congratulate Shang Qing Sect for holding a new Grand Tournament!"
Chapter 8 The Visit of Demonic Cultivators Part 1
The loud voice echoed in the small world of the Shang Qing Sect. Although there was no malicious intent, it also made all the disciples become alert.
Domineering Palace was one of the largest super-large sects among the demonic cultivators, and only Domineering PalacePrimordial Chaos Sect could compete with them in terms of strength.
When such a force came to visit at this time, and they also brought many disciples from other demonic sects, no one believed that they came with good intentions.
When the demonic cultivator arrived, the guests of the various righteous sects immediately put aside their differences. They followed Xing He to the outside of the mountain gate as if as long as the demonic cultivators dared to cause any troubles in the Shang Qing Sect, they definitely would not ignore it.
However, the facts had proved that the Shang Qing Sect was not weak enough to need help from outsiders.
As soon as Xing He appeared, many warriors in golden armor showed their figures from the void.
The physiques of those warriors were all tall and burly, and they were holding spirit treasures and magical instruments in their hands, and the palpitating suppressing aura radiated from those fighters was very scary.
The number of Golden Armored warriors was still continuously increasing, and all of them were staring silently at the people that came uninvited.
Like a silent giant, in the gap of the visor, all people could see was the divine light that represented the surging fighting spirit.
Xing Yun and Xing Ya also came out, and the two of them were hiding behind the crowd.
Leaning on Xing Ya and looking at the backs of the golden armored warriors, Xing Yun just wanted to say something, but Xing Ya first explained it through voice transmission.
"Those are all puppets, they look impressive, but they don't have much combat effectiveness."
Xing Yun instinctively felt that the so-called "no combat effectiveness" was a lie, and he also vaguely sensed something wrong.
But he still asked the question that baffled him.
"So when you say they don't have much combat effectiveness, how ineffective they are?"
Xing Ya thought carefully for a moment, then shook her head casually and sighed, "they are ineffective to the people who are at my master's level..."
Xing Yun, "...."
He didn't intend to continue to ask the follow-up questions, and it was easy to ruin his understanding of the power level of this world.
The Golden Armored Warriors formed a great mountain protection formation in just a few moments, and the moment the Golden Armored Warriors appeared, the demonic cultivators who came to visit also took action.
They all cast out their battle formation.
Although not under the same sect, a large defensive formation had formed tacitly.
A torrent of devilish energy rose into the sky, and a riotous atmosphere swept across the earth. The originally bright sky was now shrouded in dark clouds, and the billowing black shadow looked like a terrifying mouth, which could swallow this magnificent mountain at any time.
"Brahma Roaring Golden Armor Array ——"
"Wait!"
The previous voice echoed again before Xing He activated the golden armor array.
Following his voice, the huge mouth swallowing sky began to transform again.
The black whirlpool gradually turned into the outline of a human figure, and like a skinny giant hiding in the black cloak, only a pair of scarlet eyes could be seen.
A black long stick gradually condensed in the pale and withered hands.
At the top of the long stick, the gray cyclone was spinning and accumulating rapidly, like a thousand screaming souls gathered there. The terrifying screams were comparable to the attacks of the souls.
When the whirlpool exploded, a large banner fluttering in the wind appeared.
The banner was extremely white, and the fluttering noise was very sharp.
The man raised his right arm with his index finger pointing at the sky.
"Yo! Xing He——! Hold Up--! It's me--!"
Not only Xing Yun, but even a group of elders who had seen many things were speechless after hearing those words.
Seeing that the Brahma Roaring Golden Armor Array did not show any signs of continuing to activate, the leader of the demonic cultivators held the ghost spirit summoning banner high and floated toward the mountain gate.
"Uh... Peace is the most important thing, right? Greetings all the righteous seniors, I'm Lu Xifei from the Domineering Palace."
"So it's you little brat..."
As soon as Xing He said this, it made everyone's eyes widened in shock. There were even a few elders of the Shang Qing Sect who almost passed out instantly due to the anger.
"How is your master's injury?" Xing He ignored the reactions of those people, and just chuckled, "If he has recovered, then don't forget that he has promised that he would fight me in a duel again."
Lu Xifei's mouth twitched when he heard the words, "my master ask me to bring you a message..."
"Oh, what is it?" Xing He was curious.
"He said, 'when I got out, I will let you know what cruelty is.'"
"Haha, he is really a mad swordsman."
As if responding to Xing He's fighting spirit, the Azure Cloud Divine Sword he was carrying suddenly burst out with a strong fighting spirit, and the surging sword energy pierced the sky with the sound of the sword.
"Watch your mouth!"
Although he was a junior, Lu Xifei still suppressed his anger and said this.
"There is no point for me to get angry at a junior... so what exactly are you here today? I don't think you are really here to congratulate us."
"Apart from congratulating you, there is also another thing..."
"Insolence!" Taoist Master Ming An suddenly reprimanded, "Not to mention that you and I are enemies, you are just a junior, how dare you talk to us on equal ground!"
"This junior means no disrespect," Lu Xifei raised his hand. The huge thin human figure immediately waved the banner in his hand.
The whistling sound suddenly rose, and a terrible crack suddenly appeared where the banner passed.
A huge crack like an eye suddenly expanded, and several figures slowly flew out.
"Taoist Master Ming An is really so courageous, you are actually trying to intimidate a junior. You have really made the righteous cultivator proud."
One of the scholars dressed up in black said with a chuckle.
"Indeed," the other blue-clothed woman agreed. She was neither mean nor alluring like how female demonic cultivators were portrayed in Xianxia novels, she gave people only the cold and dead silence like the ten thousand years cold abyss. "Since you want to use your seniority to bully the junior, then I can also do the same thing to you."
Before the voice was over, the woman wanted to take action to suppress Taoist Master Ming An.
However, Xing He immediately stopped in front of Taoist Master Ming An, so that the woman had to forcibly stop.
"For the sake of you, I will let him go." The woman threw the suppressed terrifying power into the distance. In an instant, the distant thunder surged, and the light of destruction rose into the sky, "where are those old fucks of yours? Tell them to come out!"
